Although
J.C. Penney(JCP) posted an 11% drop in comp sales, the store has new signs of life. It will have the credit necessary to make it through the holiday season, which should push the stock higher, according to Cramer.

Although
TJX Companies(TJX) sold off after
Macy's(M) reported earnings last week, the stock jumped on its own good results.

Cramer concluded that succeeding retail stocks have been led by strong leadership and effective execution.
